The current Shining the Light Challenge is to use your favorite ODBD stamp set
"here". It's hard to pick my favorite, but I do love the Vintage Border Background which was one of my first purchases. This time I stamped it in white & embossed with clear EP on this great frame my friend Sue (scrumplescrunch) sent to me. My Little Things set is another favorite, so I popped up the frame over the quote stamped with VersaFine Onyx Black. Decided to make it into a "splash of color" card & used the smallest blossom from the Sweet William-small set to make the 2 panels that are stitched using my Sew Easy. The butterfly is my newest MS punch & the clear dots are colored with COPICS RV09 to match the bright pink cardstock. Tiny black pearls on the butterfly finish it off.
We're having typical Spring weather--sun, clouds, rain, hail--all within an hour! In between showers I saw the first 2 bright yellow goldfinches at my feeder. I love all the birds, but especially the goldfinches. Hope you've had something to bring a bit of joy to you today. Thanks for stopping by.
Hello Greta
ReplyDeleteOMG the Frame looks amazing, I love the design with the dramatic Black as a Bg off set by the purity of White, and then your splash of energy from your butterfly...Like your touch with the stitching too.
You should enter this into the Frilly and Funky Challenge, there are no prizes but your work is seen, and this needs to be seen.
